Chapter 6: Falling into the Pit
Zhang Qixun slowed down and slowly leaned over.
Through the staggered bushes, I saw a man in front of me sapping something with a sapper.
Judging from his figure, the man was indeed an old itch, and at the moment he was shirtless, wielding a shovel and constantly digging the soil.
He set up a mountaineering flashlight on a tree branch and used it as a street lamp.
Lao Itch's expression at this time was completely similar to that of the big grin during the day, and he even had an earthen pistol pinned to his waist.
The cool night breeze blew, and Wu Xiaoxie couldn't help but shiver, and his whole body was very cold.
He didn't understand that Fa Xiao, who had a good relationship since he was a child, grew up wearing a pair of pants, when did he have such a hidden city government and scheming, and what made him even more chilling was that Lao Itch even calculated him into it.
Wu Xiaoxie took a deep breath, looked sideways at Zhang Qixun next to him, and gestured a few times, meaning "Do we still want to continue watching"?
Zhang Qixun nodded, they were in a better position, and Lao Qi, who was focused on digging the pit, did not notice the existence of the two at all.
Moreover, Zhang Qixun also has selfish intentions, whether the changes in the old itch make Wu Xiaoxie vigilant, with him watching, dealing with the "old itch" as a last resort will not make Xiao Tianzhen too sad.
For half an hour, suddenly, the shovel didn't know what it had dug up, and there was a crisp crashing sound.
Lao Itch stopped digging, leaned down and found a stick-mounted object from the dirt pit.
It was covered in mud, and it was dark, Wu Xiaoxie squinted his eyes and poked his neck to look at it for a long time and didn't see what it was.
The moment the stick appeared, Zhang Qixun felt a trance in his consciousness, as if something was about to break out of his mind.
Lao Itch wiped the object clean with the placket of his clothes, put it in his arms, and then picked up the sapper shovel to quickly fill the pit.
Wu Xiaoxie realized that he couldn't stay any longer, so he turned his head and beckoned Zhang Qixun to hurry up, but found that Zhang Qixun's eyes were blank and his expression was sluggish, and his heart suddenly chuckled.
Lao Itch had finished filling the soil, carried the sapper shovel, took the flashlight from the tree and walked back.
Seeing him go away, Wu Xiaoxie tentatively patted Zhang Qixun's face with the back of his hand, and called in a low voice: "Muyu!" Muyu, wake up quickly, the old itch will go back, and let him find out that we are not in the house and it will be over. ”
Who knew that Zhang Qixun not only did not react, but also closed his eyes, his breathing gradually lengthened, and his body was about to fall back.
“?!” Wu Xiaoxie hurriedly supported him, he couldn't believe it, "I rely on your uncle!" Can you actually fall asleep at this time? ”
No, it's so wrong.
Muyu is not such an unwary person, and the person who can still fall asleep in this situation has a lot of experience.
Wu Xiaoxie intuitively felt that Zhang Qixun had become like this, and it had nothing to do with the stick that Lao Itch dug up.
Wu Xiaoxie glanced at the watch on his wrist, it was just after four o'clock in the morning, and there was still a period of time before dawn, so it was impossible for the two of them to nest outside until dawn, but when they went back to the shack, there was an unstable element of Lao Itch.
Wu Xiaoxie was so entangled for a while.
Finally, he gritted his teeth, picked up Zhang Qixun on his back, and pulled his legs in the direction in which he came.
Forget it, let's die, since Lao Itch has gone to great lengths to trick him here, there must be something that he can't accomplish alone, and tearing his face is not good for everyone.
He just went back and just found an excuse to prevaricate in the past, besides, he still had to dig a pit in the middle of the night.
The more he thought about Wu Xiaoxie, the more he became arrogant, and his steps couldn't help but get bigger.
Suddenly, the ground under his feet was soft, and he didn't have time to react, Wu Xiaoxie fell into the pit together with Zhang Qixun on his back.
Wu Xiaoxie: "......"
Now it's okay, ready-made excuses are delivered to the door.
Wu Xiaoxie helped Zhang Qixun to sit against the wall of the pit, and shone a flashlight around.
The trap was not large, it was just above its chest, and its head was still exposed, presumably dug up by hunters at the edge of the village to trap small animals.
Wu Xiaoxie put the flashlight on the edge of the pit to shine the light, and jumped twice on the edge of the pit with both hands to find a feeling, making sure that he could jump on it.
Then he supported Zhang Qixun with his short body, put him in a position of lying on the edge of the pit with two arms, jumped up first, and then dragged Zhang Qixun out of the pit.
After doing this, Wu Xiaoxie was so tired that he collapsed on the edge of the pit, snorting and panting.
For the nth time, he spit on his weak chicken physique.
After resting for a while, Wu Xiaoxie tied the flashlight around his neck with a rope, picked up Zhang Qixun and continued to hurry.
When he was approaching the shack, he bumped into the old itch who came out with a flashlight to find someone.
Wu Xiaoxie pretended not to know anything, and hurriedly called Lao Itch to come over to help, "I'll go!" Come and help, I'm dying of exhaustion. ”
The old itch came over and changed Zhang Qixun to his back, and said suspiciously: "You...... You two are doing it in the middle of the night...... What did you do? I went out and, and when I came back, the two of you were gone. ”
Wu Xiaoxie saw that he had made an excuse, so he also looked annoyed, and said half-truthfully: "I was also awakened by urine, and suddenly found a green eye staring at me outside the window, and I was so frightened that I shouted on the spot, which woke up the wooden fish, and the ghost thing also ran away, I chased the wooden fish out, but accidentally fell into the trap dug by the hunter, and the wooden fish's head fell on the stone at the bottom of the pit and fainted, and it took me a long time to get the two of us up." ”
The old itch glanced at the blades of grass on Wu Xiaoxie's head, and saw that the two of them were indeed disgraced and embarrassed, so he suppressed his suspicions in his heart.
Back in the shack, Wu Xiaoxie sent the old itch to rest, and lit a fire on the first floor to guard Zhang Qixun, holding the dagger tightly in his hand.
The next morning, Zhang Qixun seemed to have really fallen asleep, and got up to wash up naturally.
Wu Xiaoxie took advantage of the old itch and didn't pay attention to giving him gestures, but as a result, Zhang Qixun's face was unclear, which made Wu Xiaoxie half angry.
I didn't care about the old itch and couldn't say it directly, so I could only nest in the corner and sulk alone.
Zhang Qixun suddenly didn't realize why he was angry, and his memory always stayed in the time when he slept last night.
After breakfast, when he was packing up his equipment, Zhang Qixun found that the dagger was not there, and looked at Wu Xiaoxie.
Wu Xiaoxie snorted coldly and threw it to him angrily.
Zhang Qixun: "......"
A bewildered face.
So, what happened to Xiao Tianzhen last night when he didn't know it?
This face is a negative man...... Ahh Is it the expression of being wronged, what kind of trouble is it going to make?
Lao Itch was happy to see the conflict between Wu Xiaoxie and the two, and tried to sow discord without a trace, but Wu Xiaoxie didn't pay attention to him.
The three of them returned the same way, and Lao Itch led the way in front.
Zhang Qixun walked at the end, thinking about the plot line in his mind, and suddenly realized that he seemed to have ignored something.
